<p>The stars of the movies that pioneered a certain brand of raunchiness have seen wildly varying levels of success since 2003's "American Wedding."</p>
<p>Here's a hint: you know how sometimes, the hot girl from high school kind of falls off the pedestal and the band geeks become millionaires?</p>
<p>That's pretty much what we've got with this bunch.</p><h3>Mena Suvari (Heather)</h3>
<img src="https://static5.businessinsider.com/image/4e288247cadcbba7110c0000-400-300/mena-suvari-heather.jpg" alt="" />
<p><p>Suvari&nbsp;has focused on indie films like "Mysteries of Pittsburgh" and "Factory Girl." She was also on HBO's "Six Feet Under."</p>
<p class="p1">She was set to star as the lead in romantic comedy "<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1877797/" target="_blank">The Knot</a>" and "<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1572306/" target="_blank">Last Stop</a>," a thriller with <strong>Brian Austin Green</strong> last year; however, the film still hasn't been released.&nbsp;</p></p>
<br/><br/><h3>Tara Reid (Vicky)</h3>

<br/><br/><h3>Shannon Elizabeth (Nadia)</h3>

<p><p>Elizabeth has become a serious&mdash;and pretty successful&mdash;<a href="http://www.pokerlistings.com/poker-player_shannon-elizabeth" target="_blank">poker player</a>. In 2005, she outplayed 91 people to win $120,000 at a&nbsp;<span>New Year's Eve Poker Tournament at Caesars Palace.</span></p>
<p>She also appeared on season six of "Dancing With the Stars" and kindled a romance with dance partner, <strong>Derek Hough</strong>, <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20296867,00.html" target="_blank">for over a year</a>.&nbsp;</p></p>

<p>Chicago's legendary Second City comedy troupe just unveiled a new theatre called UP -- and though many of its patrons will come for the laughs, they'll be sitting in the company of history. Expensive history.</p>
<p>At the center of the new club is Booth One, a legendary banquette from famed Chicago bar The Pump Room, a staple of the Ambassador East hotel.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Lauren Bacall</strong> and <strong>Humphrey Bogart</strong> sat there during their wedding reception, and <strong>Frank Sinatra</strong> always asked for the table.&nbsp;</p>
<p>But the historic fixture was put up for sale during a remodeling of the bar -- and Second City's CEO, <strong>Andrew Alexander</strong>, swooped in and purchased it for $4800.</p>
<p>Here it is in its new home -- where, rather than hosting entertainment greats, it will seat people watching those who hope to become the next generation's.</p>
